A pdf of a 28 slide PowerPoint that provides examples of CAT4 assessment tasks. CAT4 assessments consist of verbal reasoning – thinking with words; quantitative reasoning – thinking with numbers; non-verbal reasoning – thinking with shapes and spatial ability – thinking with shape and space. Many schools use CAT4 to provide ‘predictions’ for GCSE results. Four sets of practice assessment questions are provided plus additional questions. These questions should be practiced by students so they understand the patterns and inner logic of the four reasoning areas away from the pressure of sitting at a computer with the assessment about to begin, and the clock about to count down. The PowerPoint is available with the correct answer highlighted. It can be downloaded here: /teaching-resource/resource-12785332

A pdf of a 46 slide PowerPoint that introduces or utilises many mathematical concepts. Mainly for post-primary settings but elements could be used in primary. There is at least a months material for lessons and will be useful for revision classes or an introduction to the concepts involved. Please review it if you download it and do put it to good use.

A short PowerPoint including examples, sheets and solutions of 3-dimensional (3D) combinations of cubes drawn on isometric paper as an introduction to plans and elevations. Some slides contain advice in the notes section. If you feel this is useful do please provide feedback particularly for any improvements that could be made.

A four page booklet bringing various approaches together that aim to improve how questions are asked in the maths classroom. It is designed to be used for Maths Dept CPD rather than for teaching students although some slides would be useful for teaching. It encourages teachers to ask better questions and to develop student questioning in Mathematics. It includes a modified Bloom’s taxonomy as a prism through which to see questions in Maths.

A spreadsheet that makes clear the links between graphs of quadratic functions and intercepts, turning points and symmetry. It is completely editable. It works best with a=1 since the aspect of completing the square and bracket factoring need a more sophisticated approach (version 2?). It includes a blank template for students to complete. Let me know in a review if you have any further suggestions for improvement.

A progression of mental maths strategies for addition and subtraction from a basic level to GCSE level. The strategies are grouped as ‘Change’, ‘Split’ or ‘Jump’. It invites students to change a problem, to an easier form, before splitting numbers or/and jumping along the virtual number line that exists in their heads. This is a useful resource for Maths teachers of all age groups to see what are the next steps for their students and also to see the range of different possible strategies available.

Very useful techniques for GCSE Maths and GCSE Further Maths using the CASIO fx-83GT or fx-85GT CLASSWIZ calculators. Don’t forget to provide feedback if you find the pdf useful.

A pdf of a 22 slide PowerPoint that shows some really important maths concepts in concrete form and which pupils should be aware of. Cuisenaire rods are the main focus but enhanced with the counting stick to produce a powerful arsenal for additive reasoning. It covers equivalence, inequalities, decimals, factors, primes, composites, fractions, squares and algebra. There is at least a weeks material for all ages at primary school and applicable to secondary students who have gaps in their understanding. Please review it if you download it and do put it to good use. If you think this is good, think about purchasing the PowerPoint. It allows the teacher to introduce the key ideas to students via extensive use of animation. Most of the ideas are easier to access through animation and slow reveal.

A printable and editable bank statement for use in Key Stage 3 and GCSE Mathematics. Created in Excel so different figures can be used. Two statements are given, one with negative entries and one without. Please review since this is my first ever resource and I feedback would help me improve.

A fantastic way to introduce number bases and reinforce place value. Based on the wonderful Global Maths project. The 32 slide PowerPoint includes animations, blank templates and mini explosions! Please review if you download and use it.

Short student questionnaire to garner attitudes towards Maths. Give out at the start and end of an academic year and see if anything shifts. Spreadsheet for analysis is being constructed. Please review if you put this to use.

81 medium and 81 small tiles for use with Izak9 cubes. In recent times, collaborational activities with Izak9 cubes have been limited by social distancing. These tiles can be used as individual sets and enable students to follow the tasks set by the teacher following the Izak9 online support material. These tiles are not endorsed by Qubizm.
